LAMB/Cashmere sweater question

Over*the*RainbowThread Starter

I want to buy this LAMB cardi BUT my only concern is it looks longhaired like angora and I'm allergic to that because is sheds and flies all over the place - kills my eyes. The cardi is 100% cashmere, but why does it look so furry then? All the cashmere I've seen is quite flat?
